LOL This is so funny!

Uh... fellas... last time I checked, this is a ....gasp... shudder... game.  When you get shot down you don't really die.  If your bomber gets shot up, and you choose to go ballistic with it on the way down, what the hell difference does it make, especially comparing it to real life.  In real life, no pilot in his right mind would take a solo buff out field hopping like happens in AH, just as many other situations would not happen in real life.  Yes, I truly love the realism we do have in AH, but we must face facts a bit and realize that it is a SIMULATION, not an exact duplication of real life.  And if you want to get in to the craziness of real life...... if I remember my history correctly, certain pilots of asian descent were flying their entire planes at the enemy...... can you say kamikaze?  I look at it like this; as long as I can control my plane, it is a weapon, to be used against my enemy.  As long as I am alive, I am a threat to my enemy (well, I like to think so anyway.   )  Bug exploitation is for morons, but it doesnt appear to be the case here.  I do agree however with the connection quality issue.  As it was explained to me, the coding of this sim is optimized for lower speed connections.  I have heard from many who have high speed connections and have had many problems with connection QUALITY, rather than speed.  If you played HalfLife, Quake, etc. Maximus, then look at it like this;  In those games (all of which I have played) low ping is fine, but if you have high packet loss with it, you are screwed, no matter how low your ping.  Similar situation here... fast connection, but low quality in relation to this program's requirements will yield poor results.

 As Yeager once said...

"Hand a hillbilly a rifle and hill hit a bull's eye everytime."

 And

 "...problem was, those damn Germans had alot more hillbillys, posing as nobility."
